Rey Mysterio could be a great opponent for Bray Wyatt, and they could have an astounding rivalry. Mysterio is a new member of RAW as he got drafted from SmackDown Live. Mysterio had a bout with Samoa Joe at The Showcase of Immortals, where he suffered a humiliating loss.

Rey Mysterio needs no introduction as he is one of the legendary wrestlers of the company. He is one of the best high flying wrestlers in the history of the company. He has won the Intercontinental Title twice, Cruiserweight Title thrice, Tag Team Titles four times and the WWE Title thrice.

Considering the stature of Rey Mysterio, a feud between Mysterio and Bray Wyatt could be ideal. Wyatt could make a big statement with his new character if he gets to dominate Mysterio. The Eater of the World could tell an awe-inspiring story with the three-time WWE Champion, if the two men do lock horns.

The All Mighty Bobby Lashley could be a credible rival for the new Bray Wyatt. Lashley is currently searching for a new opponent after a lengthy rivalry with Finn Balor, which ended at The Show of Shows.

Lashley returned to the company last year, and the expectations were sky-high when he came back. Since Lashley earned his name in MMA and other wrestling promotions, he was expected to get a good push. However, it did not happen, and his run was substandard until he grabbed the Intercontinental Championship. Lashley went on to become a two-time Intercontinental Champion.

The new character of Bray Wyatt might create an exciting rivalry with Bobby Lashley. The former Intercontinental Champion has attained an impressive momentum in the last few months, and he is gradually reaching the top of the ladder in the red brand. Moreover, Lashley is a heel and Wyatt is likely to be a babyface. With the involvement of Lio Rush, it could become more attractive.

Similar to Bray Wyatt, Sami Zayn also returned to the company this month. Zayn was sidelined due to injury for ten months, and he returned on the RAW after WrestleMania 35. The former NXT Champion immediately turned heel after his return, and he has been doing a remarkable job on the microphone as a bad guy.

Sami Zayn had a titanic success in NXT, where he became a popular face. Apart from winning the NXT Championship in the developmental brand, he produced several awe-inspiring bouts. With an impressive title reign in NXT, he was expected to do well on the main roster, but he could not replicate the same success.

Despite being a fan favourite, Zayn's main roster career has not been fruitful, but his fate could alter as an imposing heel. The recent segments of Zayn have gravitated the attention WWE Universe, and a rivalry with Bray Wyatt could lift his stature. The two men could offer some spectacular promos every week if they start a rivalry. Besides their mic skills, their dexterity in the ring cannot be questioned.
